If your child is a 7th through 12th grade student at DeQueen Public Schools:

Boys physicals will be Monday night July 27th at 5 P.M. at the Arena on campus. Girls physicals will be Tuesday night July 28th at 5 p.m. at the Arena on campus. These physicals are free. If you cannot make it, you must get your physical from your physican before playing sports.

It might not be in our comfort zone, but second grade students at De Queen Primary are embracing the use of Google Classroom with the use of Chromebooks. Once we recognize that our students are going to need these skills in order to be successful it becomes obvious that we really can’t afford to not prepare them properly.

De Queen School District has a long history of academic excellence and award-winning student clubs and organizations. We provide an environment for our students that offers a challenging curriculum along with a sense of responsibility. Across all six of our public schools, we employ some of the most intelligent and engaging teachers and staff, so that our students have the opportunity to achieve academic excellency.

De Queen Teacher of the Year

Ninth grade junior high teacher Terry Brackett was honored as the De Queen Teacher of the Year during last night's De Queen/Sevier County Chamber of Commerce banquet. School officials describe Brackett as a tireless advocate for her students who brings an incredible devotion to education each and every day of school. They added that she is a wonderful asset to both the school and its students.

After the tragic loss of her son, Austin, last year, Brackett began speaking to local churches and organizations to share her faith in God and provide inspirational testimony to others who are facing extreme difficulties in their lives. Despite the losses in her life, Brackett has committed herself to helping others in need. Congratulations to this excellent and deserving teacher!

The Mission of De Queen School District is to provide our students with the skills and knowledge they will need to succeed and excel in every aspect of their lives.
